Have you ever thought about why we make friends?
After all, do we really need friends at all?
Couldn't we get along just fine by ourselves?
We are social creatures and derive a lot of our happiness through the relationships that we have developed.
People with good friends tend to live longer lives. They also tend to be healthier.
Good friendships have been associated with lower levels of stress, decreased blood pressure, and a reduced risk of depression.
So it makes sense to learn how to connect with other people.
